When we travel as a group of friends, rent an apartment together, share expenses at the party, or read the restaurant bill - in all such cases, you have to arrange finances of the participants. On one hand, friends prefer not to spoil relations by mere formalities. On the other hand, nobody likes to overpay, as well as to be in debt. Repay offers an elegant solution for this delicate problem. Use it for building a clear and transparent picture: who pays for what, what is the budget for an event, what are your shares, who owes you money and to whom do you owe. Log in to Repay by any mean which is convenient for you - via web interface following the link http://repayapp.com/ on any computer, or by using the Repay app for Apple iPhone on a mobile phone, tablet, or any other gadget. You can create an event (for instance, “Holidays in the Alps”) at Repay just in two clicks, and add friends so all the participants can track expenses and registers their transactions: “I’ve bought flight tickets for all”, “Peter paid for Elena”, “I gave money to a friend”, “Our advance money is paid back, let’s share”. Repay shows the action sequence to all participants. Repay calculates financing and displays the results helping to find answers to typical questions: • who are the participants? • what is the total share of any participant? • to whom do I owe, and how much? • who owes me money, and how much? • how much money does a specified participant need to pay? • how much money do the other participants need to pay to him or her? • what is the total budget of the event?

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Repay at Free against Loan Calculator +'s $1.99. Repay also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 91%). Loan Calculator +'s advantage is rating (4.7 vs 1.0) and in-app purchases (none vs 1). On update cadence, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Loan Calculator + holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Loan Calculator + has 152 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 91% of Loan Calculator +'s written reviews are positive against 100% of Repay's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Loan Calculator + ships an update every 5 weeks, Repay every 6 weeks. Both last shipped on September 23, 2026.
